Chapter 119: The Angel and the way home (1/2)
It was a long day especially for Amane, probably because he was basking under the stares.
While he did deliberately do that intimate act before his classmates, he was mentally worn out from the many eyes on him. Some of them were looking unfriendly, which made him all the more weary.
Not all of them were negative however. Some were simply curious, and some were cheering them on.
Most of the latter kind of stares were from the girls, and it showed how popular Mahiru was, in various senses.
“Let’s go home, Mahiru.”
He did not need to suffer various stares for the day, at least.
Once the lessons ended for the day, Amane said so to Mahiru, who was preparing to go home.
Neither Amane nor Mahiru joined any clubs. It would be troublesome if Mahiru actually joined one, and caused much imbalance in club membership. Thus, she did not.
It was a choice she made while knowing her own popularity, but that fact made Amane sad.
She did not mind however, “I met you because I did not join any club, Amane-kun…” and instead said such an adorable line, which made him embarrassed.
“Yes, let us go home.”
Mahiru finished packing her items, and showed a gentle smile, which in turn softened Amane’s expression
He was delighted that they were finally able to go home together, since they used to go home separately back then.
“I’ll be going back then.”
Amane took Mahiru’s bag from the table as he called out to Itsuki next to him. Kadowaki was gone from the classroom as he had to attend club activities.
“Yeah. I can’t bring myself to disturb the newlyweds, so you two can go home and go wild.”
“Who are the newlyweds, you idiot?”
“Wait, you two are an old couple.”
“I don’t mean that.”
What are you saying? Amane glared, but Itsuki did not seem to mind.
Instead, he looked rather delighted, showing that usual frivolous look even in the face of Amane’s harsh stare.
“Well, you clearly are. Don’t you think so too, Chii?”
“Yeap~”
“You two are annoying. So you’re saying we’re a bakauple?”
“Yo, second gen bakauple, I get to call you this since I’m the first gen.”
“You bastard.”
“E-erm please calm down Amane-kun.”
Amane was about to flick Itsuki in the forehead, but held back as Mahiru came to stop him.
“Akazawa-san, please do not tease Amane-kun too much.”
“Mahiru…”
“Amane-kun is rather dishonest, and will pout if you tease him too much. Please exercise some restraint.”
“Et tu Mahiru?”
“I am joking.”
